I’m trying to push the relevant professors to check Rack out. Unfortunately, they don’t seem overly interested. The ‘normal’ DSP course, which I’m currently taking, uses only Matlab. The embedded DSP course, which I’d like to take my next (and final) semester I’d particularly like to convince the prof to use literally anything else, as it currently uses a dev board with TMS320C5535:
and because of its age it’s a real PITA to work with on modern platfroms and the documentation is sorta awful, espically for an into to embedded DSP course. I have a Daisy Pod that I showed him and also nudged him with VCV as I think VCV can act as an almost pseduo-embedded environment for doing that class. He didn’t seem interested though.
To be fair, my experience at uni has been mixed to put it charitably, as you can read here
Ironically, it’s actually my Signals professor, Dr. Sayood, from a few semesters ago that actually showed interest in Rack when I told him it had made the class easier for me to understand, and I was even able to work with him to get it installed on his computer and get an account setup so that he could at least get Bog Audio’s spectrum analyzer. I don’t know if he’s used it at all for anything, let alone teaching, since though.
